Review from Kim S (Niece of Resident) published on 21 December 2017 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
For the 3 years my uncle resided at Park Lane he was given high-quality care, the staff are exceptional, caring and considerate at all times. His hygiene needs and daily care was always a high standard. Staff turnover is really low so there is always a family atmosphere with staff who genuinely care about their residents. I couldn't have asked for any better care or a more loving environment for my uncle to spend his last years.
↩Reply from Ronnie Cavanagh, Digital Marketing Executive at Park Lane Care Home

Overall Experience
My mother is a 92-year-old widow who has been a resident of Park Lane Care Home for a while. We felt it was time to carry out a review to highlight the excellent overall package provided.
In my experience, the staff have been very attentive and respectful to my mother even though she is not the easiest of patients due to her onset of dementia and lack of mobility. She does have problems at night regarding toilet issues and we are aware that her dignity and comfort is paramount when these arise and are dealt with most efficiently.
Her general health is monitored closely and on a number of occasions she has had prompt medical attention when it has been necessary. We are always informed immediately of any changes in her general well being and what is the best way forward.
The staff are always willing to talk to the family of any concerns they may have or we have in a professional manner to allay any worries.

Review from Peter S (Son of Resident) published on 11 November 2016 Submitted via Website•
Overall Experience
Dad commenced respite care at Park Lane following horrendous treatment at a prior home.
He is a 90-year-old widower and was therefore extremely anxious about the move. However, the degree of care/attention, dignity, and respect he has consistently received from the staff since residing at Park Lane has been excellent and so his fears quickly subsided. Absolutely nothing is too much trouble. Park Lane has a warm, friendly, cosy, home-like environment which Dad is so grateful for. Home cooked food is an absolute winner with him. Staff engage with him on regular and spontaneous visits. The staff seem well led, trained and directed and they readily communicate in a pleasant, mature, interested and 'can do' manner. The staff are easily identifiable by wearing smart uniforms with easily readable name badges. Suffice it to say, Dads respite period has just come to an end and he wants to stay at Park Lane.

The building could do with a little maintenance to enhance its physical appearance.
